Orchestrates layer-by-layer analysis of a codebase by coordinating specialized subagents to generate structured, machine-readable layer docs.

Generate layer-by-layer codebase documentation by dispatching specialized subagents to analyze database, domain-model, service, API, messaging, frontend, and tests. It produces structured docs/unwind/layers/* directories with index.md and per-layer section files incrementally.
Codebase unwinding is a layer-by-layer analysis process that extracts YAML layers, builds dependency graphs, and outputs machine-readable layer documentation. You need it when standardizing architecture documentation for synthesis across complex codebases.
Yes, layer analysis requires docs/unwind/architecture.md as input. The orchestrator extracts YAML layers from this file after unwind:start to coordinate subagents and enforce phase order for incremental documentation writes.
Subagent orchestration coordinates specialized agents through deterministic workflow phases with defined dependencies and parallelism. It standardizes the unwind process by dispatching agents to analyze specific layers and enforcing incremental writes to docs/unwind/layers/[layer]/*.
Structure machine-readable layer documentation using docs/unwind/layers/[layer]/index.md and per-layer section files. This format supports dependency graphs and YAML layer extraction, making outputs suitable for downstream synthesis.
Automated layer analysis operates after unwind:start and requires architecture.md as a prerequisite input. It enforces phase order strictly, meaning incomplete prerequisite phases will block downstream layer documentation generation.
